St. Joseph, Mo. – Route C in Carroll County, between Routes D and F, will close June 2 and 3, for the final piece of a culvert replacement project. Two culverts on that portion of Route C were damaged by flooding in 2019 and replaced in 2020 by contractors from Gene Haile Excavating, Inc., working with the Missouri Department of Transportation.
Since the road reopened in October 2020, the new culverts have experienced some settlement. The contractor plans to pave over the two culverts, resolving the settlement issues. In order to safely complete the work and achieve the best product possible, the roadway will need to close from 7 a.m. on Wednesday, June 2, through 5 p.m. on Thursday, June 3. This will be an around-the-clock closure and motorists will need to use an alternate route.
All work is weather-permitting, and schedules are subject to change.
